Averaging a double-double, Hunter Dickinson led the Kansas Jayhawks to a second-place finish in the highly competitive Big 12 conference. Not only can he shoot incredibly well from the field, he is a beast in the paint.
Towering over his opponents, Dickinson brings down 10.8 rebounds per game and has scored 558 points over 31 games for the Jayhawks.
Dickinson suffered a dislocated shoulder in the final regular season game against the Houston Cougars. However, head coach Bill Self shared with the media that Dickinson is expected to play during the NCAA Tournament.
With Dickinson up to full speed on the court, the Jayhawks will be nearly unstoppable in the tournament.
